For you: Swainsthor­pe Hall is a historic house dating back to the 17th century, with later additions from the 19th century. Grade II-listed, it is set in grounds totalling around eight acres in an unspoilt rural area. The house retains some period features, in particular a fireplace in the drawing room with the coat of arms of the Merchant Adventurer­s. There are four main reception rooms and a large kitchen/breakfast room with an Aga. There are six bedrooms and four bathrooms.

For the horses: there are several outbuildin­gs which would lend themselves to equestrian developmen­t. The farm buildings lie to the south-west of the house and include a traditiona­l timber barn with adjoining outbuildin­gs, workshop and garaging. Behind this is a stable yard with four boxes and an additional storage area. To the north and east of the house are fenced paddocks providing grazing.

Usp: there is an area of grassland and meadow bordering the River Tas. A bridge over a moat leads to a further area of grassland and meadowland with alders bounded by the river.
